Hello, there Kynseed followers!

We've checked every single review on Steam since release to analyse what people liked, disliked and wish we'd already included. We don't want to add features just for the sake of it. They all need to add depth and fun and complement the very best of the current game.

So, allow us to introduce the first Big Build addition: Customisation.



In the upcoming update, players will gain the power to personalise both the interior and exterior of their farms. We have curated an extensive catalogue of over 500 items for you to utilise, with the added ability to customise their colours and precisely nudge them into position, enabling you to refine your designs.



Imagine constructing new rooms within your farmhouse by erecting walls, selecting unique wall and floor designs, and adorning these rooms with curious pictures and decorations. But that's not all! Outside, you'll have the freedom to clear areas for additional cultivation plots, plant fruit bushes, erect buildings, decorate to your heart's content, and much, much more.



Moreover, your farming domain can expand beyond its current boundaries as you seize the opportunity to purchase neighbouring patches of land.



We can't wait to share more of the features in Customisation with you over the coming weeks. Rest assured, we're diligently working on feature videos which will guide you through the intricacies of these new additions.

But wait, there's more! In a short while, we'll be announcing another extraordinary feature called 'Totems'...


Until next time,





PixelCount

Greetings, dedicated Kynseed followers!

Today, we are thrilled to share with you the first of many exciting content reveals we have planned.

Without further ado, we present to you the official name and logo of the update that has occupied our time and efforts since just before the arrival of spring: 'The Big Build Update'!




In the upcoming posts, we will be unveiling each new feature individually to avoid spoiling the surprise. However, we can assure you that this game update will introduce three massive game modes and a plethora of quality of life improvements.

Now, let's delve into the essence of our enchanting logo and the significance of its name. What hints can you gather from these delightful elements?

But fear not, dear reader, for we shall return shortly with the announcement of the first new feature, which is - ah, hang on...

Apologies for the brief moment of excitement – I got a little carried away there!


Love,





PixelCount

Hey there!
